History

The Maroons have never been main contenders for the top honours in Gozo in the past. However, in the 2007/2008 season, the club won two of the major honours offered by Gozitan football – the G.F.A Cup and the Super Cup for the first time in the club's history. Other past honours won include the Second Division League on four occasions (1976/77, 1994/95, 2005/06 and 2021/2022), and the Second Division Knock/Out Cup on two occasions (2004/05 and 2005/06).

Qala Saints F.C. played in the Second Division was during the 2005/06 season, in which they were able to win the Second Division League and Cup double. The Saints won the Second Division League without conceding a single loss during the 2005/06 season. Furthermore, their foreign import, Ishaku Umoru, was joint top scorer in the Second Division League and Joseph Xerri was voted as Best Second Division League Player during this memorable season. During the 2008–2009 season the Maroons ended the bottom of the First Division and hence were relegated to the Second Division. After a promising start to the season, winning the first knockoutcompetition, Qala were expected to mount a serious challenge for promotion in 2009–10.

During the 2020/2021 season Qala Saints FC won the league, however, because of Covid-19 regulations and termination of league they were not crowned as champions of the second division. The following season, Qala Saints never looked back, and continued with their path towards the first division, where they were crowned as champions of the second division in the season 2021/2022. The following two seasons, with a team made up mostly with local players who have been playing for the club's nursery since a very young age, they were a huge competitors for the titles together with Nadur Youngsters. During the 2023/2024 season, Qala Saints managed to win two trophies, the GFA 1st Division Cup and the First Division BOV GFA Cup both against Nadur Youngsters with an impressive result against all odds. On both days of the finals, streets of Nadur were lit with citronella candles and limoncello was served for free for all clients and pub crawlers, because after securing the only title for the 2023/2024 with shady results thanks to money talks, and by mocking other local teams, they still managed to lose two finals within a few weeks apart from each other against what they tend to call 'il-huta z-zghira' (the small fish), referring to the Qala Saints team.
